Why you need to enter this gala…
Hi guys
The gala on the 2nd-4th July is important. Why?
— a chance to add 6 more events to this season’s times
— last gala before WC Short Course Champs 15th-17th July
Remember this?
It shows what events you can swim this season. It’s a clean, new board. You have to add times this season (starting 1st May) if you want to swim Champs and Levels. Why else would you be training? You also need to do 2x IM this season.
You can’t swim WC Long Course Champs (Dec) and Levels unless you have already swum that event this season.
Examples of Planning and Entries
We are going to use 3 swimmers (Sydni, Marco and Valentino) as examples to show you how you need to plan your entries.
Sydni has already swum these events at 4th June gala
She is adding the following 6 events (the max allowed) in the 2nd-4th gala.
She will have swum 2xIM and have 8 other events she can now swim at Champs and Levels. She can clearly see which events she still needs to cover.
Well done Sydni!
Marco only swam 2 events on 4th June.
His plan (and entries) for 2nd-4th July…
Again, Marco is clearly planning his events to give himself opportunities at Champs and Levels.
Good work Marco!
Here is what Valentino swam at the first gala, 4th June.
… and he is adding the following events at the 2nd-4th July gala
Again, a good spread of events, 2xIM done and 7 events covered for Champs and Levels. Gaps I see are 50 Fly, 50 Back, 200 Breast… and 400 IM?
Good stuff Valentino!
